There's been done some interesting work on getting the HD 4850 and HD 4870 working in Hackintoshes, but since this is experimental work, and the boards offered to the new imac and macpro differs in design from the retail boards on sale, I've been thinking on maybe going down the 9800 GTX route instead.
1. Will these cards support dual vga displays (I have two 21" CRT apple studio monitors, currently conncted using DVI->VGA adapters)?
2. What brand of 9800 GTX+ have the highest success rate? I have my eye on a BFG GeForce 9800 GTX+ OC.
I have a setup consisting of a BadAxe2 (Leopard 10.5.6 vanilla/retail install), E6700 running at 3.2 GHz with 4 GB of PC 6400 RAM. Toughpower 850w PSU.
Keep up the excellent work!

I have a couple of questions since my X1950XT are slowly dying.

I'd prefer to have 1024 MB of memory if possible.

Excellent work! I'm in the marked for a new graphics card since my Sapphire X1950XT are slowly dying on me (artifacts and instability). So this is a good news
Will this method recognize cards with more memory than 512 MB?

The case: I have the soundtrack from "Runaway Train" by Trevor Jones on vinyl, but the problem is that side "b" of the record are badly scratched , and on that side are the most haunting version of Vivaldi's Et In Terra Pax from Gloria ever recorded (The music used in the end scene). Do some sympathetic souls on this board have, or know someone who has, this soundtrack? If yes, would it be possible to send me a copy of this track (No. 11). PM me if some of you can help out.
Thank you.
